A young mum took her own life after two of her children were taken from her care while a third was desperately ill in hopsital.
Emma Thomas hanged herself hours after posting a heart-breaking farewell
message on Facebook reading: ‘I can’t do it any more, bye’.
According to Manchester Evening News , the 28-year-old was found dead in
her garden a few weeks after being told the youngsters had been placed
in the care of her ex-boyfriend permanently by social services.
Just hours before the 28-year-old was found hanging at her Rochdale home, she posted the Facebook status:
“Am done u wont my kids u got them u wont get any1 that love there kids like i do cant do it any more bye [sic].”
Ms Thomas who had two children from a previous relationship,was found
dead by her boyfriend Lee Walsh, after he went to her flat to check on
her following an argument.
A year later she met Mr Walsh and the pair had a son, who suffers
from a serious liver condition and has spent much of his life in
hospital.
The court heard that she was prescribed anti-depressants to help her
cope with her two children moving away and the strain of caring for her
seriously-ill baby, who she ‘constantly’ visited in hospital.Ms Thomas
was also suffering with ‘difficulties’ in her relationship with Mr Walsh
and that there had been ‘violent’ incidents.
As Ms Thomas’ problems mounted, she reportedly told social service staff: “I feel like jumping from a bridge.”
